In their own words
“CBRE is the world’s largest commercial real estate services and investment firm, delivering exceptional client outcomes through a broad range of integrated services,” says Michael Caffey, president of the Texas-Oklahoma division.
About the culture
CBRE offers medical, dental and vision coverage, as well as flexible spending accounts, short- and long-term disability, life and AD&D insurance, 401(k) savings plans with match, an employee assistance program and tuition reimbursements and more. It also has a wellness program and contributes toward adoption-related expenses.
Employees say
"CBRE has been at this for a long time, and they've obviously learned efficiencies, which are passed on to employees and make our jobs easier. At the same time, so far, there seems to be an open-mindedness when it comes to ideas about achieving new efficiencies. And the technology here is top-notch. Just when I think I can't be more efficient, I learn about a new tool that we have at our disposal that helps me get more done in a shorter time."
"Everyone is always friendly, professional and has a good sense of humor. The office is energetic."
Good works
CBRE allows employees up to two additional days of paid time off per year to participate in philanthropic events. CBRE celebrated its 20th anniversary of Chefs Showcase — an annual black-tie charity gala that raised $325,000 for Camp John Marc — bringing its total raised to more than $3.3 million.
